Parry Sound Ontario – May 2, 2011 - This past weekend the 2nd Annual TraX4 Breast Cancer ATV ride occurred in with conjunction with the 11th annual Can-Am Spring Jam.

Approximately 250 ATV participants took part in the Can-AM Spring Jam. All participants supported the cause in one form or another throughout the weekend including ones that took part in the special pink ride on Friday. The weekend was jammed pack with events with central command at the Foley Fairgrounds.

Kicking off the weekend, everyone had the chance to visit Spring Jam’s ATV Village, where industry related companies displayed current ATV related items. With the Spring Jam Platinum partner Can-AM and their 53’ truck and trailer sporting their newest Can-Am products, to the Gold Partners Honda, Gordon Bay Marine, and CPI Recreational Products - everyone was there to support our participants wanting to try out the latest rides on a real-life test track!!

Participants were able to take part in the exclusive rumble ride which took them on a unique ride through the town of Parry Sound with views of Georgian Bay, the Harbour and final stop at the West Parry Sound Museum on Tower Hill where various dignitaries greeted everyone. The fun Poker Jam had everyone participating, making stops throughout the weekend at the various local poker jam sponsors in order to try and play their winning Poker hand for two $500 cash prizes.

All riders were treated to a scrumptious breakfast at the Foley Fairgrounds, partially sponsored by local restaurant “Blake’s Memories of Muskoka” before they headed off for a fun filled day on their trail of choice.

At the end of the day everyone was welcomed back with a 5 star dinner catered by the Log Cabin. Part of the dinner included the opportunity to bid on some exciting silent auction prizes before the evening closed. For those still raring to go, an optional Sunday ride was available. TraX4 Breast Cancer was welcomed with open arms by the regular Can-AM Spring Jam participants. “It has been such an amazing experience to be a part of growing this event for an amazing cause and we are looking forward to continue growing this” said Breast Cancer Warrior & Co-founder, Tracey Guthrie.
